Norwich City have been told to up their offer for Domagoj Vida if they want to sign the Croatian this summer.

A report on Fanatik, via Sport Witness, claimed that the Canaries submitted a €10 million bid for the centre-back over the weekend, however, they were knocked back and told to increase their original offer.

It is thought that the Turkish side want €20 million for Vida, who started six of Croatia’s seven games at the World Cup as they reached the final a year ago.

Daniel Farke has a number of options at centre-back in Ben Godfrey, Christoph Zimmermann, Timm Klose and Grant Hanley, while Sean Raggett and Marcel Franke are due to return from loan spells.

Vida, though, would add top-level experience having been involved in numerous international tournaments, the Champions League and Europa League racking up almost 400 games in his career.

The 30-year-old joined Besiktas in January 2018, which puts them in a strong position to keep hold of Vida if Norwich continue to fall short of the fee they have demanded.
